What are your intentions for the day, Dear One?

What is it that you want to create, to experience, to put out into the world today, and what is it that you are hoping to get back in return?

It’s an important question for you to answer, consciously, intentionally and from the heart.  Because if you don’t, your ego, your habits, your patterns, your emotions, that unrelenting voice in your head that thinks it knows it all is going to answer for you.

And if that happens, do you think you are going to be happy with the response?

“Obstacles” don’t exist, Dear One, to test you, harm you, inhibit you, or throw you off course.  Their purpose is not to challenge you, mess with you, piss you off, or annoy and frustrate you.

Truth is, Dear One, that what you perceive as obstacles are simply aspects of reality that you have either:

• Never encountered before, or
• That you have just not figured out how to handle, manage, or engage with yet, in productive ways.

For example, fire, Dear One, is not an obstacle that is put in someone’s path to burn then.  It is simply another reality of your physical world. If you were to encounter it for the first time, without knowing what it was, it could appear dangerous, and it could cause you and those around you great harm.  When approached without understanding and skill, about what it is, its properties, and how to best interact with it, (and how best not to) it can be a significant threat.

But fire is not a challenge, Dear Child, it is not an obstacle; it is a tool, an element, an energy, that when understood, holds great potential for those who become knowledgeable about what it is and how it works, and learn how to interact with it and use it, safely.

Try and see all of the other elements, the obstacles in your life, Dear One, in the same light, in the same vein, with the same curiosity, and your whole world might begin to feel a whole lot less treacherous, and a whole lot more promising, manageable, and full of potential.

You don’t only hurt when you are injured, Dear One. You don’t only feel discomfort when something is broken.

Sometimes you hurt because you are in a space that no longer fits you, that is too small for you, that you have outgrown.

This may be one of those times.

How do you know?  If you believe that feeling better will require you to move backwards, to undo something that has already been been done, to take back something that has already been said, you know.

If that is the case, Dear One, don’t try and fix it.  Don’t try to stop it, bandage it or cure it.  Don’t spend your time running around looking for a remedy that will help you to restore what was, that will allow you to move yourself back into the place that you were before, back into that space that felt safe, familiar and comfortable to you.

You don’t belong there anymore.

Just let it be.  Allow yourself to feel the unease, to feel the tension, to feel the discomfort that comes from being in a place that doesn’t fit.  Allow it to inspire within you a desire to move forward, from where you are now to someplace new, to someplace larger, more spacious and wide open.

And then when that inspiration strikes, when you see an opportunity that will allow you to move ahead instead of back, take it.

Yes, sometimes you hurt because you are injured and you need to retreat, rest, and allow what was to be restored.

But only you can know for sure, if now is really one of those times.

It can be far too easy to forget this, Dear One, so today we are going to remind you;  Your body is a temple.

It is the sacred space that houses your sacred soul.

And it should be treated as such.

What does that mean?

It means that a even little (and especially a lot of) destruction is NEVER acceptable within a sacred space.

It means that under no circumstance is it ever acceptable to intentionally cause harm to a sacred space.

• A little (or a lot of) fun is absolutely acceptable.
• A little (or a lot of) risk is absolutely welcomed.
• A little (or a lot of) experimentation is absolutely encouraged.

But intentionally harming a sacred space, your sacred space, is never a good thing to do.

This can include harmful acts of physical, emotional, or spiritual destruction.

Honor your body as sacred, Dear One, and you will be amplifying its ability to serve as an expression of divinity in your life.  Ignore this truth and that expression will be significantly dampened.

Take really good care of yourself today, Dear One.

PS
There will never be a day in your life when this piece of advice will not be relevant, so remember it, always.

Once you come to realize/recognize/remember/accept, Dear One, that healing / balance / alignment IS the point, the whole point of your journey, nothing ordinary will ever not feel extraordinary again.

^^

Contrary to popular belief, Dear One, a promise is not actually something that you make to another person.

A promise is and only can be something that you make to yourself.

It is a commitment, an assurance that you make to you.

You can share a promise out loud if you want to. You can tell those around you what you intend to do. You can intimately share it with one person or you can enthusiastically share it with a group of people.

But, if you don’t recognize and truly understand right from the start that promises are only something that you can make to yourself, then you will almost always certainly fail at keeping them.

[ON A PERSONAL NOTE: For Josh ❣️]

If you need a nap, Dear One, take one.

Be at peace with where you are, Dear One – as the place where you are now standing is a pretty remarkable one.

Why?

Because you are there.

You are a blessed being, divine, an expression of spirit in the physical.  Do you have any idea just how remarkable it is to get to be in the physical – on the leading edge of creation – on the leading edge of all that is?  Well, we’ll tell you, it’s pretty remarkable.

There is so much going on around you and within you, in every moment, that we are constantly amazed that you are not constantly amazed.   You have access to an unlimited number of experiences, a constantly changing stream of them; one, and then the next, and then the next – and you have the remarkable ability to contribute to the creation of each one, to allow them or resist them, and to interact with them in any way that you choose.

So now do you understand?

The place that you are standing is a pretty remarkable one.

Why?

Because you are there.

Fun.

Make it a priority to have some of it today, Dear One.

Okay?!
